Vehicle requirement formula functions

Submitted by Brad on Sat, 2006-12-30 21:38. SE:V MODs

In vehiclesizes.txt a lot of the requirement formulas have function calls such as Get_Design_Ability_Component_Count and so on. Is there a list of valid function calls?

Also, on an unrelated topic: what does the Custom Group field in components.txt do?

Docs folder

Submitted by Thy Reaper on Sat, 2006-12-30 22:35.

In the main SE:V folder, there is a Docs folder. It contains a list of all the functions in the engine, and most can be used in VehicleSizes.txt.

I'm not sure if Custom Group works or not, but I think it is used with mounts, as in you can apply a mount to a certain custom group. The number isn't important, as long as it's unique to components you want the mount to work on.

Is that Doc folder in the root folder of SEV?

SEV, more than a feeling.

Not there

Docs is only found in Beta copies of SEV, and in patch 1.20. However the non-beta people only have a scripting manual so far.

I don't know all of the possibilities, but in my mod i used quite a few of them in my mod so far. Take a look at what i did, you might get some ideas.
